PORSCHE 718 982 GTS SEATS SET

For the Porsche 718 (982) GTS, a “seat set” typically refers to the high-performance interior configuration that distinguishes the GTS from the base or S models. In the 2026 secondary market, these sets are highly coveted for retrofits into other 982 or 981 chassis.

1. The GTS “Standard” Seat Configuration

The 718 GTS comes standard with Sport Seats Plus. These are more aggressive than standard seats, featuring larger side and shoulder bolsters to keep you centered during high-G cornering.

• Material: The hallmark of the GTS is the Race-Tex (Alcantara) centers paired with leather bolsters.

• Embroidered Logo: All GTS seat sets feature the “GTS” logo embroidered on the headrest in either matching or contrast stitching (Carmine Red or Chalk).

• Adjustment Options:

  • 2-Way (Standard): Electric backrest adjustment with manual fore/aft and height. These are preferred by purists for being the lightest and sitting the lowest.

  • 18-Way (Adaptive): Full electric control, including the motorized thigh extension and the adjustable side bolsters.

2. Premium Options: Carbon Fiber Buckets

Many GTS models were ordered with Full Bucket Seats (Option P11).

• Construction: A single-piece shell made of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) with a carbon-weave finish on the back.

• Weight: Saves approximately $20\text{–}30\text{ lbs}$ over the standard Sport Seats Plus.

• Manual Adjustment: Only the height is electric; the fore/aft movement is manual. These seats do not recline.

3. GTS Interior Packages (The “Contrast” Look)

If you are buying a “complete” set, it may come from a car with the GTS Interior Package. This adds:

• Contrast Stitching: Usually in Carmine Red or Chalk.

• Contrast Seatbelts: The set often includes matching seatbelts in the same color.

• Carbon Trim: The seat back shells on the 18-ways may feature carbon fiber or silver trim depending on the package.
